New Events for Lignite Energy Councilhttp://members.lignite.com/events/details/2019-lignite-education-seminar-161
06/10/2019 - 2019 Lignite Education SeminarGeneral Information:<br />
On June 10-13, 2019, the Lignite Energy Council will conduct an education seminar for approximately 130 elementary and secondary teachers from Minnesota, Montana, South Dakota and North Dakota. The seminar was totally revamped in 2009 and made into a two-credit class which lasts for four days. Participants can receive credit from the University of North Dakota (Teaching &amp; Learning) North Dakota State University (Education), or Minot State University (Science). This means that teachers who took the class when it was a one-credit course can take it again if they need a refresher as there is lots of new information.<br />
<br />
The seminar, which will be held at Bismarck State College, Bismarck, ND, will provide teachers with the information and educational materials they need to teach their students about how lignite is mined and used to produce electricity for homes, farms and businesses in the Upper Midwest. In addition, the seminar covers lignite&#39;s economic impact on the region, as well as important environmental issues affecting the lignite industry.<br />
<br />
Since 1986, more than 3,300 teachers have attended the Lignite Energy Council&#39;s teacher education seminar.http://members.lignite.com/events/details/2019-lignite-energy-council-annual-meeting-160
